up to now we've had a un environment program in kenya; klaus tÖpfer was its director for many years. but this program is very small and not influential enough. that's why we want it to become a real organization -- like unesco or the un food and agriculture organization -- because we believe that environmental protection is as important as culture or agriculture. so this must be reflected in the importance of this organization. the greater its importance, the greater the chance of getting results in terms of environmental protection. time's running out. >> the border region between poland and belarus is one of the last and largest remaining parts of the primeval forest that once stretched across the european plain. the bushka bjoo-veschka as it is known on the polish side is also increasingly becoming a visitor magnet. tourists, environmental campaigners and scientists all flock to this un world heritage site. >> when you've found your place in the world it's hard to explain what's so fascinating about it. it's like with love -- how can you explain exactly what you fell in love with?
